1. WHEN A DEMON DEFILES A WITCH

They appear
I remember when the fire was security
Now it's killing me
A wolf can't hunt without its prey
So take me to my grave
The demons dance by the fireside
But tonight they migrate to my bedside

Burn the bed
Burn everything
It's a lie anyway

There's nowhere left to run
There's nowhere left for me to be
Without you by my side

I cry but if you take a closer look
You'll see it's a demon's eyes
There's no coming back for me
For my spirit guide is trapped inside my brain
I don't know who I am
In the name of the Father and the Holy Ghost
Close your gates, lock the doors, there is no hope

Burn the bed
Burn everything
It's a lie anyway

There's nowhere left to run
There's nowhere left for me to be
Without you by my side
How could the world take you from me
They all deserve to burn with me

What has the world come to
When a demon defiles a witch
Nobody trusts a word I say
I can't erase these memories
But I will erase humanity
Erase humanity

Burn the bed
Burn everything
It's a lie anyway

There's nowhere left to run
There's nowhere left for me to be
Without you by my side
How could the world take you from me
They all deserve to burn with me


2. FORGIVENESS IS WEAKNESS

He is finally dead
Come celebrate this day
It was slow and full of pain
Good riddance
I hope you're born again so I can have my turn
To beat you and cut you, put my curse upon you
To pass you down to my bloodline's youth
Admit it all you want
The truth shall never set you free

Revenge is sweet but so is disease
When it turns you into a slave
Gather your friends and your family
So they can watch me spit and piss on your grave
Forgiveness is useless
It's just another form of weakness
This is for my family
Let us have this moment

He is finally dead
Come celebrate this day
It was slow and full of pain
Good riddance
I hope you're born again so I can have my turn
To beat you and cut you, put my curse upon you
To pass you down to my bloodline's youth
Admit it all you want
The truth shall never set you free

This is for my family
And the ones who suffered with us
Let us have this moment
The years have come and gone
And we all still remain broken
Let us have this moment

He's finally dead

We all know you're going to Hell
Come back to life, I'll send you myself
Dig the casket from the dirt
You don't deserve to be one with the earth

Revenge is sweet but so is disease
When it turns you into a slave
Gather your friends and your family
So they can watch me spit and piss on your grave
Forgiveness is useless
It's just another form of weakness
This is for my family
Let us have this moment


3. BRIMSTONE

Sleep with one eye open
You have no idea what I'm capable of
Keep claiming holier than thou
My knife can stab more holes than you can count
How dare you sleep where a king once slept
And dry the tears of where his queen has wept

Kill, torture, terrorize
Welcome to my mind

Terror comes in many forms
And tonight I'm terror, you're my whore
For now I'll leave you blind but still alive
So you can feel my presence stronger
This soil has cursed me
My inner demon's thirsty
You've confirmed to me the world isn't safe

My only worry in the world
Is that you can't walk on your own two feet
'Cause when you feel that last breath slip away
I won't get to see you fall down to your knees

Kill, torture, terrorize
Welcome to my mind

Kill, torture, terrorize
Kill, torture, terrorize
Kill, torture, terrorize
Welcome to my mind

Terror comes in many forms
And tonight I'm terror, you're my whore
I sold my soul so long ago
So I could watch you burn

Kill, torture, terrorize
Kill, torture, terrorize
Kill, torture, terrorize
Welcome to my mind
Kill, torture, terrorize


4. HICKORY CREEK

It's so hard to let go
You can hear me but I'm invisible
But if you dig out your eyes, maybe pain will subside
The worst that could happen is you never see me again
But the worst is yet to come, my friend

This path I walk is comforting
But now I'm left to sing this song alone
I'm fading faster now

I left so long ago
You never noticed I was gone
Now that you don't have eyes, maybe now you'll realize
Within your own head, you're creating these lies
For what it's worth, you're still beautiful
But beauty lies within the eyes

This path I walk is comforting
But now I'm left to sing this song alone
I'm fading faster now
It's time to walk away with nothing left
Nothing left in my soul
I've faded into myself

This path I walk is comforting
But now I'm left to sing this song alone
I'm fading faster now
It's time to walk away with nothing left
Nothing left in my soul
I'm fading faster now


5. BLACK BEAR

With this body, he is God and I am nothing

He has come for the blood of my only son
I can sense his heartbeat slowly fade
The sound of my voice is his way to me
I buried my tongue with my family's bones

As I lay me down to sleep
I pray to the Lord to put me six feet deep
Put me six feet deep

Father forgive me for I have sinned
I know that we will all meet our fate
Even the beast of the underworld
Burns eternally within his own flame

Sleep my son
Feel my embrace
Please don't forget my love
As the bullet goes through his brain
I wake up to live it again and again

As I lay me down to sleep
I pray to the Lord to put me six feet deep
Put me six feet deep
Pray to the Lord to put me six feet deep


6. WE ARE ONE

Hallowed be thy name
I scream these words as I slip into madness
Someone pull me out
I am many but numbers count for nothing
Therefore I'm nothing too, however

I'm a murderer
But I could be a savior and someone's mother
I have it all
I'm a saint, a sinner and a child
But we all still look the same

And you'll never know my name
You will never take them from me
We are one
We are one

He's just trying to help us
Maybe we should listen
Shut your mouth
You don't know what's best for us or anything
What will you say the moment we all come together
Tell him all the lies or speak the truth of what we are

I'm a murderer
But I could be a savior and someone's mother
I have it all
I'm a saint, a sinner and a child
But we all still look the same

Accept what we are
The longer you fight
We become more

Accept what we are
The longer you fight
We become more

You need this to be whole
Suck it down, breathe out the smoke
Come back to what you know
Close your eyes, let it go
You know that we're all powerful
We are madness, we are one

We are one
We are madness, we are one
We're all powerful
We are madness, we are one
We are madness, we are one
We are one
We are one
We are one


7. THE OTHER SIDE

I don't think I'll make it
I take my ego and set it to the side
Forget who I am, reevaluate my life
Eternal doom is coming for me
I don't think I'll make it

Dripping sweat, I make my way to the otherside
I don't think I'll make it
Clench my jaw and pull myself up to my feet
I've got to make it out

Through all the hatred and pain
I'll stand by my brothers' side
We'll overcome and make it out
To the otherside

No regrets, no guilt or sympathy
I turn my back on the woes of history
Eternal doom is a distant memory
I've finally made it

Dripping sweat, I make my way to the otherside
I've finally made it
Clench my jaw and pull myself up to my feet
I've finally made it now

Through all the hatred and pain
I'll stand by my brothers' side
We'll overcome and make it out
To the otherside

We'll make it out

Once in the dirt, now above the clouds
I am now free, I am godlike
I am reborn, the universe is at my feet
I am godlike
Godlike
I am godlike
I am godlike


8. THIRD DEPTH

A fantasy awakes, a dark desire to
Watch you slip away into oblivion
I can't wait to see your flesh turn pale
When I hear the last breath you take fail

Even with you dead, I still feel the pain
In my heart, things will never be the same
Now I must live out this dark fantasy
I am not the man I came to be

Should I feel this way I'm not supposed to
I can't find it in me to care at all
It's a shame we don't see eye to eye
That's why I am here to take your life

Even with you dead, I still feel the pain
In my heart, things will never be the same
Now I must live out this dark fantasy
I am not the man I came to be

Serenity never felt so empty
Sanity never came back to me
I'm not stable
I'm not stable
I'm not stable
I'm not stable

Even with you dead, I still feel the pain
In my heart, things will never be the same
Now I must live out this dark fantasy
I am not the man I came to be


9. LOVELACE

Picking at my scabs again
I just want to see them bleed
I am numb and dead inside
Bring me back to life
I don't want to talk anymore
Close my eyes and stop my heart
Words only enhance the sound
Of what I don't care about

At what moment did you realize
That I meant nothing
When did everything fall apart

Help me
I'm begging, I'm pleading
I need you now
Help me
Running away won't get you found
Help me
Flesh and blood runs deeper than this
Help me
Help me find my way back home

Father, can you hear me
I'm trapped inside a nightmare
Wake me up or put me in the ground
Mother, can you see me
I need you to be there
Running away will never get you found

All you ever need
Is to shove that needle deep
And reach your eternal sleep

At what moment did you realize
That I meant nothing
When did everything fall apart

All you ever need
Is to shove that needle deep
And reach your eternal sleep

All you ever need
Is to shove that needle deep
And reach your eternal sleep

Father, can you hear me
I'm trapped inside a nightmare
Wake me up or put me in the ground
Mother, can you see me
I need you to be there
Running away will never get you found


10. DOOM WOODS

In the night they call my name
The moon is my light to a greater side of hell
But I am already there
Collecting my childhood nightmares
She's gone and I want to disappear, disappear

Take me away into the trees
I dread the sun to rise
Bury me so the night will never end

They say don't walk to the darker side
But where the light shines, the devil is alive
I've seen hell through a child's eyes
And I know in time, the devil I will find
The devil I will find

In time, I will escape
But in this place my soul remains encased
The leaves have swallowed the sun
My heart has reached absolute zero
I have no one left
Even my shadow has died on me
She's gone and I want to disappear, disappear

Take me away into the trees
I dread the sun to rise
Bury me so the night will never end

Tear him from his mother's hands
Turn this young boy to a man
Don't you cry for him now
Tear him from his mother's hands
Turn this young boy to a man
Now his destiny's found

Don't walk to the darker side
But where the light shines, the devil is alive
I've seen hell through a child's eyes
And I know in time, the devil I will find
The devil I will find
The devil is alive
The devil is alive
The devil is alive
The devil is alive
The devil is alive
The devil is alive


11. SEA OF TREES (BONUS TRACK)

Frozen fields of misery
I walk you once again
When I said hell had frozen over
This is what I meant
My voice will never escape
I've craved this moment for so long
Don't come look for me so I can truly die alone

Don't come look for me
So I can truly die alone

I smell the stench of my grave and
It never smelt so sweet

This noose never fit so well
I'm finally coming home
Don't come look for me so I can truly die alone

As I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
I climb the highest tree so I am sure to snap my neck

As I sit upon the branch
I almost shed a tear
But there's no turning back now
Death I shall not fear
Look through my eyes
Then you'll understand the path I've chose
Trust me when I say
You've never felt a heart this cold

I have walked through the valley of the shadow of death
Forever I remain there with a broken neck
